3.
Unpack the generator from the
shipping crate and place on a
flat surface. To remove the
transit brackets, firstly remove
the RH side panel.
Using the Hex-Key provided
in the fittings kit, turn the
locks 90
o
to the right.
An earth lead is connected
to the inside of the panel.
This can be disconnected
by pulling it off the spade
connector on the door.
4.
5.
With the RH side panel removed you now have
access to the RH transit brackets. These are
located under both of the RH compressors and are
painted red. To remove the transit brackets remove
the 4 screws on each bracket as indicated.
Once these screws have been
removed the transit brackets can be
pulled out as shown.

7.
Remove the LH side panel as before,
taking care to disconnect the earth lead
located on the inside of the door panel.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 to remove the LH transit
brackets located under both of the LH
compressors. These will pull out in the same
way.
**NOTE**
Do not discard the transit brackets or screws as these will be needed again if the
unit is to be transported from its current location.
8.
9.
From the fittings kit, select one of the 6mm
push-fit fittings and connect it to the port
marked ‘DRAIN’ on the rear of the unit using a
16mm or 5/8” spanner.
Fit the silencer fittings into the ports marked
‘DRY AIR’ & ‘AIR’. These only need to be
hand tight as they are temporary fittings for the
purge run and will be removed again prior to
connecting to the instrument.
Connect the 2m Nylon tube to the drain
line, ensure the tube is pushed fully in and
gripped securely by the fitting.
Fit the other end of the drain line to a
suitable drain connection or container. The
container must NOT have an airtight seal
as water and air will be expelled
periodically under a slight pressure.

Select the appropriate mains cable from the fittings kit and
plug the IEC 60320/C19 socket into the mains input at the
rear of the generator.
Plug the mains cable into an
appropriate 230VAC 50/60Hz
single phase power supply
**NOTE**
Do not touch anything inside the generator while the side panels are
removed and the mains power is connected to the unit.
12.
13.
Switch the generator power ON at the
switch on the front panel.
The voltmeter is located on top of the electrical
panel. This will measure and display the mains
voltage that is being supplied to the generator.
Note the displayed voltage.
>= 220V
<= 253V
**NOTE**
If the displayed voltage is 219V or less* we would highly
recommend fitting a transformer. This can be ordered directly

Switch the generator power OFF at the
switch on the front panel.
Remove the mains cable completely from the
power supply.
16.
17.
Re-attach both the RH & LH side panels to
the generator, taking care to ensure the
earth lead’s are reconnected correctly. The
locks are secured by turning the lock 90
o
to
the left using the hex key provided.
Once the side panels are securely assembled,
the mains power supply can be reconnected.

Switch the generator back ON.
Leave the generator switched on for a period of
30 minutes to purge the system.
20.
21.
The ‘DRY AIR’ & ‘AIR’ pressure gauges,
on the front of the generator will gradually
increase from 0 to 110psi (760kpa) and
90psi (620kpa) respectively as the
pressure in the internal storage tanks
increases.
After 30 minutes of running, the generator can
be turned off. Allow the stored air in the internal
tanks to dissipate.

The purge run is now complete. Once the
pressure gauge on the front of the
generator reads 0 the silencer fittings can
be removed from the ‘DRY AIR’ & ‘AIR’
ports.
Depending on the size of the inlet on the
instrument select either the ¼” compression
fitting or the remaining 6mm push-fit fittings
and attach to the ‘DRY AIR’ & ‘AIR’ ports. If
the ¼” compression fittings are used it is
recommended that PTFE tape is applied to the
thread to ensure a leak-tight fit.
24.
25.
Select the appropriate size Teflon Tubes**
and connect to the ‘DRY AIR’ & ‘AIR’
ports. If using the compression fittings
ensure the internal olives are crimped
securely.
Connect the other end of the Teflon Tubes to
the instrument air inputs, again ensure the
fitting is securely fastened. Once this is
connected the Generator can be switched on.

as the pressure in the internal storage
tanks increases.
CONGRATULATIONS
Your PEAK SCIENTIFIC generator is now fully
installed, operational and ready to supply gas
on demand to your instrument.
General Notes
* The generator will operate on voltages of 230VAC +/- 10%. This means it will
operate between 207V and 253V. If the generator is operated on a supply voltage of
less than 220V the internal compressors will work harder and the service life of the
compressors will be reduced. It is ok to operate the generator on a mains voltage
between 207V and 220V for a short period of time, however we would recommend
fitting the listed transformer at your earliest convenience. Mains voltages between
220V and 253V no transformer is required.
** The 6m length of Teflon tube supplied in the fittings kit is to allow the
generator to be installed adjacent to the instrument it is supplying. If the generator is
to be installed further away from the instrument then attention needs to be paid to
pressure drops that could occur. The maximum distance away from the instrument the
generator can be placed still using 6mm (4mm internal diameter) or ¼” (3/16” internal
diameter) tubing is 10m. For further information relating to tubing lengths please refer
to the user manual.
For all other technical specifications, operating instructions, service
requirements, contact details and trouble shooting, please refer to
the user manual contained on the CD supplied in the fittings kit.
Please keep this for future reference.
